Инструкции
- Make the spice paste: In a small frying pan, heat 1 Tbsp. of oil over a medium-high heat. When warm, add in cumin seeds, chillies, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, black peppercorns and poppy seeds.
- Stir and fry briefly till lightly roasted. Put these into a large coffee grinder and grind to a pwdr. Empty into the container of an electric blender. Add in garlic, ginger, tumeric and salt to the blender as well, along with 6 to 8 Tbsp. of water. Process till you have a fine paste, pushing down with a rubber spatula if needed.
- Heat remaining 4 Tbsp. of oil in a large saucepan over a medium to high heat. When warm, add in bay leaves, cardamon pods, cinnamon, fennel seeds, cloves and urad dal. Stir and fry briefly till urad dal turns red, then add in curry leaves, if using. Stir once or possibly twice and add in onions. Fry onions till they are soft and lightly colored.
- Now add in the spice paste. Continue to stir and fry for about 4 to 6 min, adding a little water to prevent sticking. Add in the tomato and stir and fry for another 3 to 4 min.
- Add in the chicken pcs to the onion and spice mix. Stir till they are well coated then add in 2 1/2 c. water, just sufficient to cover.
- Bring to a boil. Turn the heat to low, cover and simmer till the chicken is almost cooked, about 20 to 25 min.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove the chicken pcs. Turn the heat up to medium-high, and reduce the sauce till very thick. This should take about 6 to 8 min. Replace the chicken, fold gently into the sauce, and cook for a further 5 min before serving.
- urad dal is a small, pale yellow split pea
